Problems with Dell Studio Hybrid with 965 Chipset and HDMI

idata — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 13:30:35 GMT

Hi There,

I recently purchased a dell studio hybrid and wanted to connect it to my optoma hd81 projector.

Unfortunately all I get is a red yellow and green screen version of my windows screen - ie it looks like it is in 4 colour mode.

800x 600 resolution works fine but the HDMI sound does not work.

I have tested the projector with a dell XPS M1330 using the HDMI connector and all seems fine - all resolutions tested ok

I then connected my new Dell Studio Hybrid to a Samsung LCD screen and it worked fine.

So it seems that it is a problem with the combination of the Dell Studio Hybrid and the optoma HD81 projector.

Can anyone help me resolve this issue ?

I have tried the latest drivers from Intel and Dell - no luck

Thanks in advance

David

Hi David

I have a couple of questions regarding this issue.

1. Does the issue occur if you connect the projector to the Dell Studio Hybrid DVI port using a DVI to HDMI adapter?

2. What version of the Intel(R) graphics driver are you using?

Regards

Robert

Hi Robert,

Re your questions:-

1. Does the issue occur if you connect the projector to the Dell Studio Hybrid DVI port using a DVI to HDMI adapter?

Yes I purchased a converter on the weekend and I can report the same problem DOES occur.

2. What version of the Intel(R) graphics driver are you using?

I have tried using the dell driver, then I tried using the latest update utility from intel and then I tried a driver from the intel web site that was specifically for problems with HDMI not displaying etc.

Unfortunately I don' thave my PC here with me so I can't be more specific but I feel like I have tried lots of different drivers.

Happy to try more though

Cheers
